Philip Mansel's highly acclaimed history of Constantinople
(formerly known as Byzantium) absorbingly charts the interaction
between the vibrantly cosmopolitan capital - the city of the
world's desire - and its ruling family. In 1453, Mehmed the
Conqueror entered Constantinople on a white horse, beginning an
Ottoman love affair with the city that lasted until 1924, when the
last Caliph hurriedly left on the Orient Express. For almost five
centuries Constantinople, with its enormous racial and cultural
diversity, was the centre of the dramatic and often depraved story
of an extraordinary dynasty.
